Subject: [PATCH v2] remoteproc: Add a new remoteproc state RPROC_DEFUNCT

Multiple call to glink_subdev_stop() for the same remoteproc can happen
if rproc_stop() fails from Process-A that leaves the rproc state to
RPROC_CRASHED state later a call to recovery_store from user space in
Process B triggers rproc_trigger_recovery() of the same remoteproc to
recover it results in NULL pointer dereference issue in
qcom_glink_smem_unregister().

There is other side to this issue if we want to fix this via adding a
NULL check on glink->edge which does not guarantees that the remoteproc
will recover in second call from Process B as it has failed in the first
Process A during SMC shutdown call and may again fail at the same call
and rproc can not recover for such case.

Add a new rproc state RPROC_DEFUNCT i.e., non recoverable state of
remoteproc and the only way to recover from it via system restart.

	Process-A                			Process-B

Changes in v2:
 - Removed NULL pointer check instead added a new state to signify
   non-recoverable state of remoteproc.
